Iran warns it will destroy all regional infrastructure if attacked

Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesman for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Command, stated that the United States continues its lawlessness and destabilization of the region. He emphasized that under no circumstances would Iran allow the United States, as a foreign and extra-regional power, to interfere in the Strait of Hormuz. "This is Iran's unbreakable red line," he said.

Zolfaghari warned that if the recent threats by the U.S. president to target Iranian infrastructure are carried out, "then everything that, owing to Iran's restraint, still remains — meaning all infrastructure in the region — will be crushed under the steel blows of the powerful armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, such that no trace of it shall remain, as if it never existed."

He further cautioned that "the foolish enemy should know that the moment of epic for us is not a moment of avoidance. What comes from the armed forces of Iran is not an equal strike, it is a superior strike — strikes that will be more severe, more extensive and more devastating than ever."

According to Mehr News, Zolfaghari's remarks come amid heightened tensions between Iran and the United States, with the U.S. president having previously threatened to target Iranian infrastructure. The Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global oil shipments, remains a flashpoint in the ongoing confrontation between the two nations.
